deletePage

DestructiveIdempotent

Permanently deletes a specified page from a Polarion project space. Preview the exact request with dry_run before sending, because this action is irreversible.

Instructions

Deletes the specified Page. Effect: irreversible — data removed or overwritten by this call cannot be recovered through the API. Tip: set dry_run: true first to preview the exact request Polarion would receive, without changing anything. On tools with a typed output schema, this preview is returned as an error-flagged result since it is not real tool output -- read the text content regardless of that flag.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
dry_runNoIf true, validates the request and returns the exact request that would be sent to Polarion — with the Authorization header redacted and any binary payload summarized by byte length — without actually sending it.
spaceIdYesThe Document Space ID (a folder-like grouping of documents/pages within a project). Use `_default` (no quotes) to address the project's default space.
pageNameYesThe Rich Page's ID/name within its space — its stable identifier, not its display title.
projectIdYesThe Polarion project ID (its URL segment, e.g. `myproject`), case-sensitive. Required to scope the request to one project; call getProjects to list valid IDs.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and readOnlyHint=false. The description adds that the effect is irreversible and data cannot be recovered via the API, which goes beyond the annotation. It also explains the dry_run preview behavior, clarifying that the preview returns an error-flagged result. This provides meaningful behavioral context beyond the structured fields.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is two sentences, front-loaded with the core action ('Deletes the specified Page') followed by the irreversibility warning and the dry_run tip. Every sentence adds value and there is no fluff. The structure is optimal for quick parsing.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a simple delete tool with three required parameters and one optional, the description covers the essential behavioral aspects: irreversibility, dry_run preview, and the preview's error-flag behavior. The output schema is absent, so no need to explain returns. It doesn't mention side effects on related data (e.g., attachments) but that is not required for a basic delete operation. Overall, it is sufficiently complete.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The input schema has 100% coverage with clear descriptions for all four parameters, including dry_run, projectId, spaceId, and pageName. The description does not add meaning beyond the schema; it only references dry_run in the tip. Per calibration, baseline 3 is appropriate when schema covers everything.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the action: 'Deletes the specified Page.' It specifies the resource (Page) and the verb (Deletes), and distinguishes it from read/update tools like getPage and patchRichPage by making the destructive nature explicit.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description gives a useful tip about dry_run but does not mention when to use this tool versus alternatives, nor does it state conditions where it should not be used. There is no explicit comparison to sibling tools like deletePageRelationships or patchPage, leaving the agent to infer usage from the name and action.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
